Goal #5 Find a new home – COMPLETE

Well, we liked the apartment we looked at, put in an application and paid the lovely fees, and we got the one we requested – found out officially today!

It will be ready in the middle of Oct.  which will give us time to move out of our current townhouse and get it cleaned thoroughly for the owners.

So – one goal down…now, just the horrible process of packing, moving, and unpacking…ugh.

Finding a new home…

Goal # 5 is to find a new home.  Our lease is up in a couple of months – the owners of the townhouse are being transferred back here so they want their house back…lol, big surprise.  Its unfortunate because this has been a nice place to live, but we’re also ready to move to a one-story house or apartment, figuring that it will be easier to keep our daughter safe (she’s quite a climber).  So…the search starts.

There is a nice apartment complex that one of my husband’s cousins lives in and we love the layout and the spaciousness of it so we’re putting in an application today.  Here’s hoping it works out – I hate house-hunting almost as much as job-hunting.

Other things we need to do:

• Look at houses for rent.
• Start gathering boxes.
• Clean out kids’ clothes and toys.
• Donate unwanted/unneeded/outgrown things.
• Pack things we don’t or WON’T need.
